Early vs Delayed Salvage Radiotherapy
for Prostate Cancer
The investigators will randomize patients presenting with early BCR with a negative baseline PSMA PET/CT, to upfront SRT or surveillance. Early BCR is defined as a PSA relapse of \>0.1 to \<0.3 ng/mL. Patients in the surveillance arm will be monitored with PSA every 3 months. A repeat PSMA PET/CT will be undertaken when the PSA reaches a target level of \>0.5 to \<1.0 ng/mL. Both early radiation treatment and surveillance with repeat PSMA PET/CT imaging are within patterns of practice locally; therefore, the investigators believe that there is clinical equipoise on this subject.

SBRT
for Oligo-Progressive Cancer
Systemic therapy is the main treatment for patients with metastatic cancers. Oligo-progression has become a recognized entity for metastatic cancer and it is thought that a subset of cancer cells may develop heterogeneity and resistant clones while receiving systemic therapy. This results in overall tumor response but progression in metastatic sites. Current standard is to change systemic therapies. With advancing technologies, stereotactic body radiation therapy is being used to deliver high doses of focused radiation to the disease site, while minimizing risk of injury to the surrounding organs. SBRT is increasingly being used in patients presenting oligo-metastatic disease, and is recognized as having a potential for cure. This study will investigate the use of SBRT for breast and genito-urinary cancer patients with oligo-progression. Patients will be seen before and at the end of treatment and will be followed at 4 month intervals for up to 2 years. During the visits participants will complete quality of life questionnaires and will have standard of care imaging. Patients will also have the option to provide blood at baseline, during treatment, and at various follow up time points for analysis of ctDNA
